"What does the worker gain from his toil? I have seen the burden God has laid on men. He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end. I know that there is nothing better for men than to be happy and do good while they live. That every may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all his toil - this is a gift of God. I know that everything God does will endure forever..."
Ecclesiastes 3:9-14
"Light is sweet, and it pleases the eyes to see the sun.
However many years a man may live, let him enjoy them all.
But let him remember the days of darnkness, for they will be many.
Everything to come is meaningless.
Be happy, young man, while you are young,
and let your heart give you joy in the days of your youth.
Follow the ways of your heart and whatever your eyes see,
but know that for all these things God will bring you to judgment.
So then, banish anxiety from your heart and cast off the troubles of your body,
for youth and vigor are meaningless..."
